What is floating graphic?

A floating graphic is an image or visual element that is positioned independently from the main text in a document, allowing it to "float" alongside or within the text. This layout technique enhances visual interest and helps to illustrate or complement the surrounding content. Floating graphics can be aligned to the left, right, or centered, and they often wrap text around them for a cohesive presentation. They are commonly used in digital media, web design, and Word processing applications.
